  1. Zombie, or senescent, cells accumulate in our body with age, when we become less able to clear them. But a study in mice suggests that a drug could restore this ability and improve ageing outcomes #science #aging #senescence

  4. Disposable soma theory of aging (Evolution 🧬)

    In biogerontology, the disposable soma theory of aging states that organisms age due to an evolutionary trade-off between growth, reproduction, and DNA repair maintenance. Formulated by British biologist Thomas Kirkwood, the disposable soma theory explains that an organism only has a limited amount of...

  6. A quotation from Thoreau

    Age is no better, hardly so well, qualified for an instructor as youth, for it has not profited so much as it has lost.

    Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862) American philosopher and writer
    Walden; or, Life in the Woods, ch. 1 “Economy” (1854)

  10. Another excellent essay from Shanaka Anslem Perera. No idea where he finds the time to be this prolific, at this depth, but I'm very glad that he does.

    A theory on failure modes of longevity drug promises, and an argument for concentrating on living well rather than on living longer.

  15. #KnowledgeByte: Negligible #Senescence is a term that describes organisms that don't show signs of biological aging, such as reduced reproductive capability, functional decline, or increased death rates with age.

    It can also be described as a similar term to biological #Immortality, which means that an organism isn't more likely to die as it gets older.

  20. 📃New paper in Ecology letters 🐦 by ‪Bertille Mohring et al.

    Life-history trade-offs and #senescence in black-browed #albatrosses from Kerguelen and Bird Island

    Black-browed #albatrosses breeding in more variable environments display slower life histories (slow, late-onset reproductive senescence) and greater among-individual variation in life-history strategies

  25. Cellular #senescence is a biological paradigm in which a unique subpopulation of cells permanently and irreversibly stops dividing but evades apoptosis (programmed cell death). Instead of dying off, these arrested "zombie cells" remain metabolically hyperactive and linger within mammalian tissues.
